“You wanna know how this ends?” Hulu has revealed an official trailer for an intense horror thriller titled The Stranger, arriving for streaming this month. Not to be confused with the British series The Stranger, or the Australian crime film The Stranger. Some of you may recognize this, it was initially conceived as an hour-by-hour series for the app Quibi. After that app went under, it’s been re-edited and reset for release as a feature film streaming on Hulu, but without much fanfare. Maika Monroe stars as a recent transplant to the Los Angeles Valley scraping by as a rideshare driver. One night, she picks up Carl at a Hollywood Hills Mansion. He appears pleasant at first, but that facade is shattered when he reveals himself to be a violent, misogynistic murderer. There have been a few other rideshare horror recently including Spree and Ride. Co-starring Dane DeHaan and Avan Jogia. This still doesn’t look very good and this trailer is way too short.
Here’s the new official trailer (+ teaser poster) for Veena Sud’s The Stranger, direct from YouTube:
Starring breakout scream queen Maika Monroe, Dane Dehaan, & Avan Jogia, The Stranger takes you on an edge-of-your-seat ride as rideshare driver Clare (Monroe) goes through a 12-hour fight for survival when she picks up Carl (DeHaan), a passenger who becomes her worst nightmare. An escalating journey that underscores the power of justified female rage and vengeance. The Stranger is written and directed by Canadian writer / producer / filmmaker Veena Sud, director of the films Stretchmarks, The Salton Sea, and The Lie previously. Produced by Wileen Dragovan. This originally debuted streaming in early 2020 on the now dead app Quibi, and will be re-released now as a feature film instead. Hulu will release Veena Sud’s The Stranger streaming on Hulu starting on April 15th, 2024 this spring. Anyone interested in watching?
